to argue about Jay stew We had We had a
really good argument set up for.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Uh, well, the Major League Baseball season opens in less
than twelve hours.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
And it's a sham.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
I think it is, but you don't.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
It's a sham and a mockery. It's a shamockery. Yeah,
uh well, let me just can I pitch you on something?
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Pitch me on it?
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
And Dan, I want your your reaction the same thing
with you, Sammy, right, Okay.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
So I'm not gonna say.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
That that we're tapped out of sports in the United States,
but we're getting there. We're getting close, and for Major
League Baseball specifically, like we're kind of running a little
bit on fumes. The business is obviously very good. Anyone
who tells you like major League Baseball is going to
(01:30):
die in the next five years, like, no, they wouldn't
be giving out seventy million dollars per year contracts if
it was going to die and if they weren't making
lots and lots and lots of money.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Is that okay?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Is that?
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Is that a fair premise? But it's not like you're like, Wow,
baseball is.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
On the rise, right, They're just everybody wants a team
that everything's hot. I'm not demeaning the young talent in
Major League Baseball, but we're a little bit tapped out
in baseball. So you've got to create new revenues. You've
got to expand since you're you're you have a shrinking
(02:10):
what's what's the market when you have your your percentage
of the market.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
What's that called? Help me out?
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I'm the one who wins. Yeah, you have a shrinking
market share. You don't have expanding market share. You have
a shrinking market share, right, the NFL, the NFL, the NFL,
college football, NBA, maybe stable, maybe shrinking.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I think it's growing, continues to grow. Football is growing internationally,
especially more in Europe than in Asia. But baseball is
big in Asia. Baseball is big in Japan. Does anybody
have any dispute that?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
And they've done the preseason games, the spring training games
in Japan before, right, They've done a series of all
kinds of different games before. Does anybody remember them?
Speaker 5 (02:55):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:57):
So you have the best baseball player, quite possibly in
the history of the sport who's from Japan, and he
happens to play for the defending World Series champions. So
I don't understand any sort of negativity towards giving them
(03:19):
real games and trying to expand your market share in
a burgeoning market and in a different part of the
world where here we're kind of tapped out or like, eh,
let me know when October comes, Oh, what do you think?
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Buyer? You hate it?
Speaker 6 (03:36):
You like it?
Speaker 5 (03:38):
I have no problem with it. And if to what
you're saying is true, then I do think that not
that Japan is a new market for baseball, but you
are trying to find dollars elsewhere. I just I subscribe
to the theory of baseball has become a bit like
college basketball. It is regional and in a way, a
(04:00):
bit like college football, where if your team is good,
your fans are in it. They are coming to the ballpark.
They're there every weekend. But it maybe doesn't grab a
hold of things nationally, which may be a reason why
Major League Baseball, Major League Baseball has played They've played
games in Japan, as you mentioned, or overseas that have
been regular season games. They weren't Cactus League play, you
(04:22):
know games, or grape Fruit League plays. They were games
between the Mariners and A's. It's just now I think
it draws more attention because it's Otani and the Dodgers
and Cubs.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Okay, Jay Stu, what do you hate so much about it?
Speaker 3 (04:35):
All right, So just a couple of things about your theory.
Your premise is that it's better for the revenues of
Major League Baseball owners to spend regular season games overseas.
I don't know if that's the case. I don't care
(04:56):
about the revenues of Major league owners. I care about me.
I care about American fans that baseball has done a
very good job of alienating over the past twenty years.
They need to I guess they need to get back
the trust and the interest of the American audience because
(05:16):
that ultimately is what's going to pay their bills. I
think having a regular season game in Japan is not
going to increase the fervor. In other words, if you
were to go up to any Japanese person that's going
to attend the game in ten hours and say, would
you have been less excited to come here to watch
Sho Heyo Tawni your idol if it was a regular
(05:39):
season major league game or an exhibition game, they would answer,
I am not less excited to see an exhibition game,
or I just want to see him. So I don't
know who we're servicing there. We have a game that's
going to start at three am on the West Coast
for the world champion Dodgers, as you pointed out, and
(06:00):
then a week later the entire league's going to start.
It just doesn't make any sense. Also to the week
of the NCAA tournament. Again, you're you're trying to fight
for attention and eyes, and you're losing that battle. I
don't think anyone in baseball says were tapped out of
the American market. I think most of those people are like,
(06:21):
how do we get more eyes or retain the eyes
that we've always had, and they're losing that by starting
a game at three am Pacific time.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
All right, Well, all I can tell you is Manfred
has sped up the game. Manfred has gotten athleticism back
of the game with the base pass. Manfred has made
a lot of really good decisions.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
I like those two.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
I like those two.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Okay, so you get one, not every not every not
everyone is going to hit. And then two, there are
plenty of people that didn't like things that he's done.
That's worked out pretty well. So obviously you hate that.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Let's recap our thoughts on the weekend with a little
love and hate.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
What did you love? God?
Speaker 6 (07:04):
I love you, and what did you hate? Meet these
player Hays.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Stuck, Gallip Show, Fox Sports Radio, Tyrack dot Com Studios.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
What'd you love from the weekend? Dan Byra, what'd you
love in the weekend?
Speaker 5 (07:19):
Okay, this is very off the wall and it's very
very inside, but you were talking with Jeff Goodman earlier
about U see Riverside accepting two bids to the tournaments,
the craziness. Have you guys seen the bracket for the CBI,
and I suggest any listener just go and take a
(07:39):
look at CBI tourney.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
That's what it's called.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
It's the Purple College Basketball Invitational, but it's at CBI Toorney.
It is a bracket that I've I don't know why
it's made this way, but it's just hilarious in terms
of because they I don't even know how many teams
they have DOUG nine to eleven. I think they have
eleven schools in the bracket, So you have one bracket
(08:04):
that's really long. You've got three of them having a bye.
I think they're all playing in one spot. It just
it made me chuckle when I looked at the winner
of Illinois State and Presbyterian gets an automatic bid to
the semi finals. But the reason why it's done like
that is because they only have It's just it's a mess.
(08:24):
I love the Sun Belt bracket. I love the West
Coast Conference bracket, and then when I saw this bracket
and the CBI of I haven't seen any bracket like
that before. I was Sam, do you have a brought up?
Do you have a picture of it at CBI Toorney,
I've never I'm sorry now, I thought you were actually.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Looking the crown now as well.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
There's the crown that's put on by Fox.
Speaker 5 (08:44):
But unfortunately schools that could be aligned for that, like
Ohio State has declined an invite to play in that.
That's going to be a week long event in Las Vegas.
But I just had a big chuckle over this CBI bracket.
The reason they had to do it is because they're
playing the game on a certain day. But there's just
extra long line of brackets. And this is what we
get when you don't make the NCAA tournament. Pure chaos.
(09:06):
But part of the Riverside deal, as Jeff Goodman explained,
was also a part of my love in two tournaments
at the same time.
Speaker 8 (09:13):
It's amazing and you need a television subscription to watch
the first round in the quarterfinals something called flow hoops. Yes,
subscription required. Oh no, Unfortunately, I just pulled up a
list of the games, not the actual brack was pretty good.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
That's quite The crowd is.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
Supposed to be all you know, TV partners of Fox
and those that don't make it. But that's what I
that's it was just a fun.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
I'm not gonna say which one, but we were there's
two that that we were invited to and I was
just like, yeah, we don't our guys. We had so
many injuries at the end of the year. Some of
these like we won four games, like, it's not gonna
look great for you guys, Like yeah, but people watch,
I get attention like I'd love to, but my guys
are fried.
Speaker 8 (09:57):
Some of these, like lesser known postseason tournaments you pay
to get in, right, Yes, so it's yes. I think
it's eventually gonna have to be the opposite. They're gonna
have to pay these teams because well, okay, do you
know why they pay the team's paying.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Do you know why they pay? Tell me, because the
coaches want to get twenty wins?
Speaker 6 (10:17):
But also what about like that team, well do just
tell you though.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
What about the coaches want to get twenty wins?
Speaker 6 (10:22):
They want to get twenty wins.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
But so then they go like, ah, they got my
twenty one seasons we had, but.
Speaker 8 (10:28):
You got slim pickens with some of these some of
these uh, and I feel like you you have so
many postseason tournaments outside of the n I T and
NCAAA that you like have to pay some of these
teams to get in.
Speaker 6 (10:39):
I don't know. It just seems like, uh like if
I think the.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Teams of the Crown are getting are getting paid some yeah,
there's some nil stuff yeah too right.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Again, I don't know if that's sustainable either, because I mean, look,
are people gonna gamble on it?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Sure? Are they gonna watch it?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
No?
Speaker 8 (10:56):
You got you got teams that missed the NCAA tournament
were like, we're not even gonna go to n I T.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
Good.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
So Vegas is the only place this actually works because
you can do a trade for the rooms, right, so
the cost is less, yeah, all things involved. The cost
is less for the flights. The other genius to foight
what Fox is doing? Like whoever's putting on I gotta
figure out. I forget what because foxes lay us the
third party to put the tournament on. It's really smart
because they're doing it. I think it's the weekend before
(11:23):
the final four. The week before the final four, yeah,
a little while. Yeah, so they have time to book
all the flights and everybody will fly commercial and it
won't be nearly as expensive, so there's a lot of
cost savings there.
Speaker 9 (11:35):
But like.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
The portal's open, it's gonna be a mess. Like the
portal opens Monday, it's a mess, dude, Like you're really
are you going to play a guy who's in the portal? No,
And then there'll be guys that, like everybody knows is
going in the portal and they're not gonna put themselves
in the porol. There's here's another one. Okay, some schools.
(12:04):
I don't know how everybody works some schools. I think
most schools, the second you go into the portal, you
stop receiving your compensation, your nil compensation, which is paid
out monthly. So the portal opens March twenty fourth, but
you wait April second or third, they'll be a rush
(12:25):
to the portal because kids will get their check and
then go into the portal. A little bit of dirty
pool there.
Speaker 8 (12:31):
I think we need some tweaking for the portal. Obviously
in football and basketball dates tweak the dates.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
I don't like that the portals open during the nca turn.
But I will also tell you.
Speaker 6 (12:42):
The portal's already open.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah, yeah, I have not spoken Era Senata. Have you
spoken to a player who is in the portal? E?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I have not spoken to a player in the portal,
But we get sent names and lists by third and
fourth part parties all the time, and you just kind
of got to be at the ready and you got
to figure out who's going to stay from your group
as well. You know, you'll have somebody walk in and
surprise you when the portal opens.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Surprise.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
But anyway, back to the Crown. The Crown's got some
interesting names, right, But I just wonder, like, Tyson Dagenheart's
the all time lean score at Boise State. Is he
going to play against George Washington on March thirty first?
Is Patrick McCaffrey going to play for Butler against Utah? Like, hey,
let's go that one last game? And who is he
going to play with? I don't know, it's crazy crazy.
(13:37):
Villanova fired their coach, but they're in the Crown. Who's
coaching the team, who's going to play for the team?
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Good luck, good luck?
Speaker 6 (13:48):
It is messy.
Speaker 8 (13:48):
Let's at least pretend to focus on basketball and then
have a date where we can stop pretending about pretending
we're not focused on the portal, and then actually engage
the portal.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
It sucks Jayce du some of you love in the weikend.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
All right.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
So I had my baseball draft, my fantasy draft at
my buddy Pete's place. I drafted Mookie Bets in the
first round, only to find out that he's lost fifteen
pounds in two days and likely has dysentery. So that'll
be cool.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Was he an Oregon trail?
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Was up?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Was he on Orgon trail?
Speaker 7 (14:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (14:19):
I think it was an Oregon trail ran out of
dried hamhocks too, bummer.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
So I'm making my way back on the five from
from Wahabra and I tune into Fox Sports Radio to
hear Dan Byer and Aaron Torres doing the Selection show.
And I'm a huge fan of listening to people that
know what they're talking about, that are excited about what
they're talking about. You just can't. You can't coach that,
(14:46):
you can't bottle that up. You can't. That enthusiasm is infectious.
I will say this. As all these conversations are being
had around the business about how to keep radio very
very irrelevant and make a lot of money, there's a
lot of talk about maybe going towards the narrow casting
that podcast offer. Hearing people talk about something they know
(15:10):
very well and are excited to talk about is a
good listen. Dan Bayer and Aaron Torres. That was a
thrill yesterday on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
If you haven't listened to it, you could access it
on our podcast FSR Weekends. It's it'll give you everything
you need to know.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Well done. I love that, Dan, I love it. It's
always it's.
Speaker 5 (15:31):
Always a rush, as Doug can tell you, when the
brackets are coming out. We're on for three hours and
smack dab in the middle of it is when the
brackets are released and there is something about c brackets
pop up and CBS does keep it going at that point,
and then thirty five minutes we had the brackets and
then then it's breaking everything down and that's fun.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Appreciate that, Sam, save me, love you, William.
Speaker 8 (15:56):
All Right, I guess my love and my hate from
the weekend is actually going to be stuff that happened
on a Friday and a Monday. Maybe a Sunday night,
but a Friday Monday. We'll just throw that. It's one
long Saint Patrick's Day weekend. Dan, I'm still riding high
from my initial descent, absolute domination for the Friday.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Yeah, Sam killed it.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
You and Carrie, will you?
Speaker 4 (16:15):
You?
Speaker 6 (16:15):
And Moncy?
Speaker 8 (16:16):
I guess kind of you came up with this game
you present with this game of guess if this these
initials are a real conference in basketball or made up?
And initial descent initial descent. I had a blast.
Speaker 6 (16:29):
He was perfect. I was perfect. I bowled a three hundred.
Speaker 8 (16:33):
Because you know, when I look at all the scores
on any given weekend during college basketball season, I open
up that Division one and we go down the list.
We go down the list, and I dominated, and I'm
still riding high of that. So that was my love
of the weekend. Chapping on a Friday. Sam knew there
was a Summit League. Also knew there wasn't a Human League.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
I did, Yes, the Human League.
Speaker 8 (16:51):
Maybe maybe we'll just have one giant conference in like
twenty five years and it'll be called the Human League.
And there's also the Human Fund, which is I think
is a Seinfield reference, right, the Human Fund?
Speaker 4 (17:02):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (17:02):
Yeah, Georgia.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Did you guys mention that their second single fascination was
a better song?
Speaker 5 (17:08):
Human League? I like Human and I didn't realize until recently.
That was a Jimmy Jam Terry Lewis. So I was
things I found out today. I did not realize that.
Speaker 6 (17:19):
The old what was it that Carrie got tripped up on?
Speaker 4 (17:24):
It was he got Doug you'll appreciate this.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
We gave him C A A and he's like, oh,
that's the that's the representation, that's the agents.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
But it was also a conference.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Yeah, colonial, yeah, yes, the FML was not a league,
by the way, it was not.
Speaker 8 (17:41):
There's not a lot of conferences that are called leagues,
like the Summit League, I think is the only one,
right sure, and so like you're thinking, like I know,
there's not a ton of leagues league leagues.
Speaker 4 (17:50):
Go ahead, done?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Uh what I love for the weekend, I got to
hang out my son. Man. He's turned sixteen on Wednesday.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
I see.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
It been a hard season and hard for me personally
spending time away from him.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Uh but uh.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Uh surprising him with taking him to Rolling Loud, Like, dude,
he's grown. He's grown three inches in the last three months.
So he's going through a bit of a gross spurt
finally kind of catching up and I like five six
ers getting them getting there. So but just the joy
(18:34):
from him, and uh, you know one of the things
and I have again, I have a good group. Every
coach you hear talk about their team over the next
four weeks and be like, oh, we got great kids.
I really do have good young men. But the one
thing we're trying to like be cautious of is guys
who are so we're they're not entitled, you know, and
(18:58):
they're thankful for all the opportunities they're given. So, yeah,
my son showed me some of that where he's just
super thankful, super kind about it, respectful, good stuff. All right,
let's get to what we hated form the weekend. Our
resident hatter is Jason Stewart. Jay STU hate.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
It's kind of the antithesis of what I loved. So
the antithesis of tourism, Bayer loving and knowing a lot
about what they were talking about. Are is all the
talk show hosts since the selections that are just completely
talking out of their backside, like they haven't watched a
second of college basketball, but all of a sudden they
(19:40):
know that Louisville got.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
Jobbed, they got horrible draw How could.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
They possibly do that? And then they talk to you
with conviction about who's going to be in the Elite eight,
Like they ignore the sport for four or five months,
and then now on Sunday Night through the next three
weeks they're talking about it with expertise. That annoys me
and I hate that. And also it's also unfair that
(20:06):
guys like Aaron Torres and Doug and you know people
in the past that have been paid to be an
expert on the sport. It's unfair that they need to
submit their brackets. I think it should be an industry
wide rule. The people that follow the sport closest should
not have to submit their brackets. All they do is
worse than your credibility. It's the most unpredictable thing in
(20:27):
the history of the world.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
I disagree. Why would you subject experts to that scrutiny.
I want to see people's majorly.
Speaker 8 (20:34):
I'm going to see people's Baseball Hall of Fame ballots,
So I got to go against that everybody.
Speaker 6 (20:38):
It's gotta be transparent, completely transparent.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Did you guys see that all four of the ESPN
talking heads, as we like to say, but Jay Williams,
j Billis, Rhys Davis and some other guy were all
picked Florida some other guy. I was just a just
a personal disc. They all picked Florida to win it
all all of them picked four Florida.
Speaker 9 (21:00):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
So they unveil their brackets at the end, and every
one of them is like, Florida to win, Florida, to win, Florida,
to win, Florida to win.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Well, prisoner. I think Todd Golden is a friend of mine.
I actually coached him a little bit when I was
with Bruce Pearl on this team. And Todd's good. Todd's
fund dude. But we do the prisoner of the moment
thing all the time, Like just one the SEC tournament.
You know, I gotta pick them, doesn't mean they won't.
I think they're really really good. The other thing Todd
(21:29):
does is they are completely all in on analytics. Like
we do a lot of things analytically that are I
think a little bit ahead of the curve. Now obviously
doesn't always play out as such in terms of when
we foul, how we call it timeouts, when we go
to score shots, we take, et cetera, et cetera. But
they are all all advanced metrics.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Everything they do.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
It's really fascinating and they have very good talent but
it's like kiss the death when they all pick them
and it kiss of death that way.
Speaker 4 (22:01):
All right?
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Who else? Who else said?
Speaker 5 (22:04):
Did you and Goodman talk about South Alabama? I had
to step away for a second. Okay, so they got
the invites. Well, I was just gonna say they got invited,
and then it got reded, then they got uninvited. I
had to record something when you were talking to him,
so I didn't hear the whole interview. But I'll say this,
I love the Players Championship and Rory McElroy ended up
winning the rain delayed event. It's a nice watch. It
(22:27):
doesn't rise to the level of the majors. I don't
consider it a fifth major, but I do think Sawgrass
brings drama the seventeenth Hall.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
I embrace it. I think it's great.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
There's just no place to put it in March, and
you can't have it next weekend. You can't have it
the weekend after. There was a time when they had
it in May. It wasn't great for the course. They
tried to do it on Mother's Day weekend, that's when
the PGA was being played in August. I just as
a college basketball fan, that's what this time is and
I don't feel that I give full attention to the
(22:57):
Players Championship, but Doug, I don't have an answer on
this event could go to get the full hype that
it deserves, as we're now a month away from the Masters.
So yeah, a little disappointing. I hate that it's back
to being this way. But oh well, I don't hate
(23:17):
j Billis. I actually like him.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
I think I consider him a friend, but I hate
that he continually falls back on a wrong opinion, which
is why are we arguing about these last two teams
in the tournament? They don't matter anyway, right, I remember
this argument with a school called George Mason when they
(23:41):
probably shouldn't have been in the tournament and they got
it into the tournament or in the first four, and
last I checked, they played in the final four. I
remember it with UCLA a couple of years ago and
they were in.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
The first four and went to the final four.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
You go back to VCU and it's like, we have
twenty years of data now on the first four and
these last couple of teams in and it's not an
absolute but there's pretty obvious statistical analysis or just easy
analysis that says, anybody can come out of date and
(24:18):
continue to win games so many times. The benefit to
play that extra game in Dayton and to play without
kind of fear of losing a game once you get
into the real bracket.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
I just.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
And Jay is so well respected that no one calls
him on it. On ESPN.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Nobody goes like, hey, Jay, have you been saying the
same thing for twenty years? And like go through chapter
and verse of all the teams he got wrong.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
So I hate that.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Sometimes, Hey, listen, it's okay to go like my bad,
I'm wrong, And that is loving hate.

This is the Doug Gotlib Show on Fox Sports Radio.
There are certain people who do things at times for attention.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
You know.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
It's I think in our lives you have people who
you can't get married no matter how much you're like, well,
the venue on a college football weekend, if like your dude,
if he's a college football fan or his buddies are
college fball fans, like, unless you're doing a like a
destination wedding where people can choose, hey, to get out
(25:59):
of town, Like, you gotta be thoughtful about when you
plan a wedding. And look, I understand there's lots of
venues and lots of other issues, and you plan, You've
got time to plant. It's a lifetime decision. And so
if it doesn't work for you in a certain week,
you know, if you're if you grew up in Texas
(26:20):
and Oklahoma or Texas and Oklahoma fan like or your
husband or his family is you can't get married on
the weekend.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Of the Red River Rivalry. Everybody okay with that, right?
Speaker 4 (26:31):
Yep? Can't do it?
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Uh, my son was born and it wasn't anybody's fault, right,
I mean, listen, it was his fault. No, I mean, listen,
he was We didn't plan it. He wasn't planned, but
he was supposed to. He was supposed to be born
in I think May or May and then the girls
(26:55):
were supposed to be born in June, but they were
they were premies, so the doctors. And he was born
on the first day of the NCAA tournament sixteen years
ago this Wednesday, right, not playing, not perfect whatever.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
You can't be.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Somebody who steals the thunder of major events, you know.
And I kind of feel like, doesn't anybody think Aaron
Rodgers is gonna sign with the Steelers like Wednesday night
Thursday morning, right? Because he wants to be on that
bottom line. And it's weird because he puts off the
(27:37):
I don't really want the attention, you know, kind of
won with the world, like, yeah, you did have a
documentary done on you, right, what followed you around when
you're doing ayahuasca?
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Did happen?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
I could he do it now like today, tomorrow, yeah,
or Wednesday and be all good? Sure, But if it
happens Wednesday night on he's that guy? Is that is
that fair?
Speaker 5 (28:08):
I I'm gonna say this. I think he has the
wherewithal because he does love basketball, had a minority share
of the Bucks had shown up to Wisconsin tournament games
during times. I don't think that he is going to
do that. I would also say this, I'm not sure
(28:28):
he would hidjacket. And the reason why I say that
is I think we do is we're trying to look
at different things to talk about. But if I'm am
I more worried about my bracket that I filled out
than Aaron Rodgers, you know, going to the Giants or
the Steelers, like once he signs, it's done. If I'm
(28:48):
not a Steelers fan, I want to know if Michigan
gets upset by UC San Diego. So while I think
that it would be a big story, I don't think
that it would affect the day to day sports lives
of most of us.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
It's Pittsburgh Steelers, it does. Pittsburgh Steelers are bigger than
a college basketball team.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
I think, yeah, But I think if you look at
the individual, if you're if you are not, it would
lead your show. It would lead your show, and in fact,
the NFL is probably gonna lead your show Thursday and
Friday unless something happens in the NCAA tournament the night
before or but I don't know on the grand scheme
(29:28):
if fans are truly going to be that locked in.

Let's get to the press.
Speaker 4 (33:27):
All the time. Yep, the press.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Hey, Dan, how about the press. What's going on with
Deon Sanders?
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Yeah, Doug Dion Sanders speaking today as the Buffaloes get
ready for uh doing their spring practice Talcott. Talking about
the spring game, Dion had an idea for it which
flies in the face of other schools who are canceling
their spring games.
Speaker 9 (33:49):
Frame game would be televised. ESPN two would broadcast Frame
game on the nineteenth. We got to u sail to
stand out and packed your stang. Because the way the
trend is going, you never know if this is going
to be the last spring game. I don't believe in that.
I don't really want to condone that I would like
to play the spring. Actually, I like to play against
another team in the spring. That's what I'm trying to
(34:11):
do right now. Love to have a competitive playing against
your own guys kind of get monotonous and you really
can't tell a level of your guys because you know,
it's the same old, same, where everybody kind of know
each other. Towards the end, I would like to start
of like the pros. I would like to practice against
someone for a few days. Then you have the spring game,
(34:31):
and I think the public will be satisfied with that tremendously.
I think it's a tremendous idea. Yeah, I've told those
personnel who should understand that it's a tremendous idea.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
I love it. It won't happen anytime soon. I love it.
Probably is what happens. The guys get hurt. Sure, yeah,
those guys get hurt.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
D two.
Speaker 5 (34:51):
I had read somebody who wrote that they allow it
in or in a lower level, but I'm not sure
if that's all out. Just like the you know the
secret secretag.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yeah, So your scrimmage, we're trying to get a big
name opponent come to scrimmage US in Green Bay and
then you know, either the day of or day before
a Packer game. So we got to wait for the
NFL schedule to come out. And then do one for
charity at the at the before the Packer game.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
What else Danny Doug West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrissey in
the state's attorney general announced they've launched an investigation against
the NCAA after West Virginia.
Speaker 6 (35:26):
Was left out of the bracket investigation.
Speaker 5 (35:29):
Calling in a miscarriage of justice and robbery at the
highest of levels.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
It's a travesty, it's a sham. It's a mockery. It's
a Travis Sham mockery.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
They also made up a sign calling the National Corrupt
Athletic Association.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
That's not a new one, not a new sign. NCAA
has nothing to do with the selection committee anyway.
Speaker 4 (35:51):
Jameis Winston's gonna visit with the New York Giants tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (35:56):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Yeah, he's gonna become everybody's like, he'll be a backup
for the next like fifteen years. My guess is Jamis
Finston's the back of quarterback for fifteen years.
Speaker 5 (36:06):
If he does sign there, does lend to the Giants
taking a quarterback or trying to trade up to do so, You're.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
Gonna take a young quarterback and would also be signs
there That means Aaron Rodgers. It seems like it's shrinking
a little bit. Yeah, becomes the Steelers or I don't know,
and the Earth.
Speaker 5 (36:22):
Derek Sting, the junior is the highest paid dB in
the NFL and NFL history.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
That's my year. I don't know him. Always a defensive.
Speaker 5 (36:27):
Back, thirty year, ninety million dollar extension and it was
someone with the initials of dB. Yes, I can, I
can relates the press.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Get out there and press.
Speaker 4 (36:38):
That was the press.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
You can ask me, but I you know, it's like
you'll hear in the podcast all these.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Like, oh, I know all these picks, and I know
what's going to happen. Okay.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
That's actually why they call it mark spendis because no
one really knows. But if you like what you heard,
you want to hear more insight into it. Download the podcast.
